It's great to have the best modeler on the planet. It's also great to have updates. But, because updates stop and a new model comes out, the 'old' one is now obsolete? With some digital technology, maybe so. But because a new product is introduced doesn't mean the old one is bad, or obsolete IMO. It CAN be if something should happen that can't be repaired because the parts are no longer available.
I have an Ultra that I still use for rehearsals... bought it 10 years ago. It works great... and it even sounds just as good as it did in 2008... with the same battery. I bought the II XL+ last year. Now the III is out... I guess the II is obsolete now. Bummer.
Does a great vintage guitar, amp, or stomp box become obsolete, undesired or sounds bad because a new model came out? Or a vintage car? I understand we're talking digital here... but the Ultra, and the II still are great... unless you're convinced in your mind they're not because the new one is out.
I'll continue with what I have, because personally I'm very happy with it, and will continue with what I have until it truly breaks and can't be fixed... because it IS great. And personally, I rather play than chase my tone every time I pick up my guitar, thinking it has to be better. Yes, I do want great tone, and I have it... in an old digital 'obsolete' Fractal unit. Imagine that
